Every time i try to click on my AVG internet security, the following pop up appears:
C:\Program Files\AVG\Antivirus\AVGUI.exe
Operation did not complete successfully because the file contains a virus.


I have not been able to access my AVG to do updated scans, etc.  It does NOTHING – i can't even get to the black AVG screen.
